We are often amazed how alu-
minum gets around to unusual
places. Who would think of
looking for aluminum in the
stomach of a Zululand croco-
dile! ...
roco-dile!.,.
It seems when this croc was
emptied, no less than 32 alum-
inum dog licenses were found in
its stomach, which suggests that
Zulu dogs are mighty careless.
But it proves that aluminum is
immune even to the formidable
digestive juices in this reptile's
insides.
Industry capitalizes on this
resistant quality of aluminum
when industrial fumes and other
corrosive conditions present a
problem: one of several reasons
why this modern metal is in such
heavy demand -and why Mean
is again increasing its already
large smelting capacity.

Just follow this simple instruction

And see how it humbles your soul.
Take a bucket and fill it with wa-

Put your hand in it up to the

Pull it out, and the hole that's re-

Is a measure of how much you'll
be 'missed.
You may splash all you please
when you enter
You can stir up the water galore,
But stop, and you'll find in a min-

The moral of this quaint example

Be proud of yourself, but remem-

It symbolized the security, strength
